Space-functional role of consortiums of ecotones of protective type to ensure the environmental safety on railway lines

Abstract

A multi-factor analysis of the impact of the Lviv Railway transport on the environment takes into account the properties of natural systems: multiple connections, stability, commutability, additivity, invariability as well as multivariable correlation of nature components. One of the important steps towards ensuring environmental safety in the railway transport is the formation of ecologically balanced system of nature management on the basis of environmentally clean technologies. A fundamentally new model of environmental safety in railway transport is of great polyfunctional importance as this enables, on the basis of the landscapeecological methods, to form consortiums of protective ecotones that will provide the maximum spatial-temporal efficacy.
